Definitions
- the teachings of this invention relate generally to data communications networks and procedures and, more specifically, relate to techniques for providing services for a mobile node (MN) or mobile terminal (MT) based on the location of the MN or MT, as well as techniques for a user to specify the desired location-related service(s).
- MN mobile node
- MT mobile terminal
- the Parlay API has been developed by the Parlay group (www.parlay.org), an open, multi- vendor forum.
- the Parlay API has been accepted by the third generation partnership project (3GPP) for the Open Services Access (OSA) architecture of next generation cellular systems.
- 3GPP third generation partnership project
- OSA Open Services Access
- the Parlay API is intended to provide an open, standard, technology-independent interface specification between applications and the wireless network functionality.
- the Parlay API 2 provides a logical separation of service logic and network functionality, enabling customized third party services to be offered.
- a function of the Parlay API 2 is to hide the complexity of the target network(s) from the service logic and, by extension, the developers of the service logic. That is, a desired service can be developed to run on the application server 1 without regard for the specifics of the network 3.
- An important aspect of the Parlay API layer 2 is that it enables the service logic of the application 1 to use information and control capabilities of the networks 3, including network 3 call control, billing and MT location functions.
- Fig. 2 is a more detailed view of the Parlay API 2 in the context of the OSA architecture.
- the application servers 1 are shown to include, by example, enterprise applications 1 A and client applications IB. Communication with the network 3 occurs through the Parlay APIs 2 over an administrative boundary 4.
- the network 3 is shown as including a network framework 5 and service capability servers (SCS) 6.
- SCS 6 includes, by example, a call control server 7, a location server 8 and other servers 9.
- the framework 5 functions as a name server for the distributed network architecture, where available services, such as the call control 7, location 8, billing and so forth register their availability.
- the framework 5 serves as a first point of contact for consumers of the services, such as third party applications (e.g., the WWW server 1).
- a service consumer can discover the available services by querying the framework 5.
- the framework 5 also performs authentication of consumers and directs them to the actual service that resides in the SCS 6.
- the framework 5 may also accomplish performance-related tasks such as load balancing across different SCSs 6 offering the same service.
- the functionality provided by SCS 6 is referred to as the Service Capability Feature (SCF).
- a first Parlay API 2 is available between the framework 5 and the client applications IB, and is referred to for this example as an Authentication, Access Control and Service Discovery API.
- Second Parley APIs (SCF Usage) are available between the client applications IB and the call control server 7, the location server 8 and the others server 9.
- a third Parley API 2 (Service Registrations, Integrity, Multi-Domain Support) is used between the framework 5 and the SCS 6.
- a fourth Parley API Enterprise Application Subscription
- a fifth Parley API 2 is defined between the Enterprise Applications 1 A and the SCS 6, and is a counterpart to the second Parlay API when the consumer is the enterprise applications 1A.
- the enterprise applications 1A engage in aggregate service contract with the network provider and maintain fine-grained control within themselves.
- the user's MT has two wireless RF interfaces, i.e., a cellular interface and a WLAN interface (e.g., a IEEE 802.11 or a Hyperlan interface).
- a WLAN interface e.g., a IEEE 802.11 or a Hyperlan interface.
- VoIP voice over Internet Protocol
- the user typically desires to have the WLAN interface switched off for power saving purposes.
- the user arrives at a certain location where the user can access a WLAN, such as the user's home or office, the user wishes to switch seamle ssly (and automatically) to the WLAN.
- the WLAN interface of the MT should be activated when the user comes close to the certain location where the WLAN is available so that the WLAN interface can begin scanning for the WLAN access point beacons, and can then register with the WLAN to enable the cellular/WLAN handoff to occur.
- This invention provides embodiments of communication networks and MTs that enable personalized, user specified, location-aware Service Creation and Notification procedures to be realized.
- the Service Creation procedure enables the user to define a personalised location-aware service, while the Notification procedure is used to generate preprogrammed messages to appropriate user processes when the user arrives at a user- specified location.
- the user processes that receive the pre-programmed messages may reside in the network or in the MT, depending on the nature of service.
- a method and system is disclosed to provide a personalized, location-aware service to a user of a MT.
- the method includes: (A) generating a service specification object that includes at least in part a user-specified location and a message to be generated when the user arrives at the location with the MT; and (B) storing the service specification object 15 for later use.
- the method further entails: (C) tracking the location of the mobile terminal; and when the location of the mobile terminal matches the location in the stored service specification object, (D) generating the message for activating a user-specified service.

- the user may also employ a characteristic semantic specification of the location (rather than actual coordinates) that can be understood by the network server 20 or third party application server 1 and converted to location coordinates.
- a characteristic semantic specification of the location (rather than actual coordinates) that can be understood by the network server 20 or third party application server 1 and converted to location coordinates.
- the user may specify the location of interest as "all WLAN hot-spots" covered by a particular network operator, or " all WLAN hot-spots at airports covered by a certain operator”.
- the network server 20 or application server 1 is then enabled to map such a characteristic specification of location to the actual coordinates of the location(s) of interest using a database of actual coordinates, or by any suitable technique.
- the desired result is that when the user carrying the MT is located at the specified coordinates, or is within some radius of the specified coordinates, the user-desired service is triggered or initiated.
- a user-desired, location- specific or location-aware service is a message that is generated to cause the WLAN interface of the MT to become active.
- Fig. 3 is a network architecture diagram that illustrates an embodiment of this invention, and illustrates the operator network 3 that contains a radio access network 25 and a packet core network 26.
- the MT 14 can connect to the operator network 3 via Base Stations (BS) 12.
- the operator network 3 is connected to the Internet 10 through gateway 13.
- the operator network 3 contains a location tracker function 24 which can determine the location of the MT 14 using techniques such as cell ID or triangulation.
- the operator network 3 also contains a network server 20 which enables the creation and provision of the location-aware services described herein.
- Network server 20 has access to the location tracker 24 of the radio access network 25.
- Network server 20 may store and maintain a Service Specification Object (SSO) 22.
- SSO Service Specification Object
- the operator network 3 also contains SCS 6 that enables third party application server 1 to access information in the network 3 (such as location of the MT 14 connected to network 3) over a Parlay API.
- Third party application server 1 may also store and maintain SSO 22.
- the SCS 6 also has access to location tracker 24.
- a computer 23 connected to Internet 10 can communicate over the Internet 10 with the network server 20, with the third party application server 1 , or with the MT 14 connected to operator network 3, for the purposes of service creation.
- the network server 20 has the responsibility to track the location of the MT 14, as well as to generate the appropriate trigger messages to activate the service when the MT 14 arrives at the user-specified location.
- server 1 queries SCS 6 over Parlay API 2 to determine the location of the MT14. The server 1 can then send a trigger message to activate the service.
- the network server 20 and the SCS 6 have access to the location tracking function 24 of operator network 3.
- the network server 20 may push (location tags in) SSO 22 to an entity co-located with location tracker 24 and request notification upon a match.
- this entity could be the SGSN (Serving GPRS Support Node) which always has up-to-date knowledge of the location of the MT 14.
- server ,1 can register (location tags in) SSO 22 with SCS 6, which in turn may push then to entity co-located with location tracker 24.
- the network has the responsibility to track the location of the MT 14. It then informs the MT 14 of its current location and the MT 14 has the responsibility to generate the appropriate trigger messages to activate the user-specified service when the MT 14 arrives at the specified location.
- the MT 14 sends periodic requests to location tracker 24 for location information (possibly via server 20 or server 1). Alternatively, location information is periodically pushed to MT 14. Which of these modes to follow can be specified at the time of creation of the SSO 22.
- the MT 14 need not have location tracking functionality of its own, rather the location tracking function 24 of the network 3 can be used.
- the location tracking function 24 can be based simply on cell ID based location tracking. Other network based location tracking techniques, such as triangulation, can be used as well.
- the MT 14 tracks its location, such as by the use of a GPS receiver 14E shown in Fig. 5, and also generates the appropriate trigger messages to activate the desired service when the MT 14 arrives at the specified location.
- a GPS receiver 14E shown in Fig. 5
- AGPS AGPS
- a user specifies: (a) the location where a certain message should be generated; (b) the entity that is to track the MT 14 location (e.g., location tracker 24 or GPS receiver 14E); (c) the message(s) to be generated at the location specified in (a) (e.g., activate the WLAN interface 14A); (d) the originator of the message(s); (e) the receiver of the message(s); and (f) the action(s) to be performed upon generation/reception of the messages.
- the entity that is to track the MT 14 location e.g., location tracker 24 or GPS receiver 14E
- the message(s) to be generated at the location specified in (a) e.g., activate the WLAN interface 14A
- the originator of the message(s) e.g., the receiver of the message(s); and (f) the action(s) to be performed upon generation/reception of the messages.
- the SSO can be created from the MT 14 or from some computer 23 connected to server 20 in the network 3 or server 1, over the Internet 10.
- One suitable server may be one affiliated with the assignee of this patent application, and known as "Club Nokia"TM.
- the SSO 22 is subsequently stored in and maintained by the network server 20, or third party application server 1, or in the MT 14 shown in Fig. 3.
- the "/" symbol in this logical expression implies an OR function.
- the value "This” is used when the service creation is performed when the MT 14 is physically present at the location.
- the MT 14 will be connected to either network server 20 or server 1 for uploading SSO 22, or MT14 can be continuously connected to the network server 20 or server 1, which guide the MT14 through the service Creation procedure over a web-based interface.
- network server 20 determines the co-ordinates of current location of MT 14 or server 1 queries SCS 6 for the location information. If the MT 14 has GPS functionality, the value "This" can be locally replaced by appropriate coordinates.
- Action ⁇ Activate WLAN interface 14A upon receiving this message>.
- an optional Tag representing other criteria, such as "Time” and/or "Date”. For example, one may wish to activate the WLAN interface 14A when near to one's office only on weekdays between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM, otherwise only the cellular interface 14B should be used.
- multiple tags may be associated with the same SSO.
- the Service Creation function is performed of line, such as by accessing the network server 20 or third party server 1 from the PC 23, the identity of the MT 14, such as the phone number, is preferably provided as well when the value "Terminal" is used for any of the fields.
- the resulting SSO can be forwarded to the network server 20 for storage, or it can be stored and maintained external to the network 3, such as by the third party application server 1 as shown in Fig. 3 (which may be the same server used for the Service Creation function).
- Action ⁇ Activate WLAN interface 14A upon receiving this message>.
- the SSO 22 is. resident in the MT 14. If the off-line Service Creation function is used the resulting SSO 22 is forwarded via the network 3 to the MT 14. This case is useful to preserve privacy of service. In this case, if the location tracking via periodic push from network to MT 14 is used, a push request is registered with network server 20 or the third party application server 1.
- the value "This” is used when the service creation is performed when the MT 14 is physically present at the location. In this case the MT 14 automatically replaces the value "This" with appropriate coordinates of the location, as determined locally by the GPS receiver function 14E. The value of "Semantic” is replaced by appropriate location coordinates stored in the MT 14 or obtained from the network server 20 or third party server 1.
- the SSO 22 is assumed to be stored in the MT 14. If the off-line Service Creation function is used the resulting SSO 22 can be forwarded via the Internet 10 and network 3 to the MT 14.
- the network server 20 or third party server 1 compares the current location (cell ID or another appropriate parameter depending upon the location tracking technology used) of the MT 14 with the Location tags of the user's stored SSO 22 or SSOs (as a plurality of different SSOs may be present).
- the user-programmed message e.g., "Wake up WLAN”
- This message is sent to the MT 14, as the user process ofactivating the WLAN interface 14Aresides intheMT 14 in this case.
- the control unit 14C of the MT 14 maps the message to pre-programmed actions and activates the WLAN interface 14A.
- TheMT 14 requests the network 3 to provide the MT 14 location information (e.g., based on cell ID, or triangulation).
- the network 3 can periodically push the location information to the MT 14.
- the MT 14 compares the network 3 derived location information with the tags of the user's SSOs. When the current location matches the tag, the user-programmed message ("Wake up WLAN”) is generated. Upon the generation of this message, the pre-programmed action of activating WLAN interface 14A is performed.
- Wike up WLAN the user-programmed message
- the MT 14 compares the current GPS-derived coordinates with the tags (within the specified radius) of the SSOs stored in the MT 14. When the current GPS coordinates match the tag, the user-programmed message (e.g., "Wake up WLAN”) is generated. Upon the generation of this message, the associated user-programmed actions (activating the WLAN interface 14A) are performed. As for case (ii), if the user process that is intended to act on this message resides in the network 3, then the MT 14 transmits the message to the appropriate process in the network 3. If it resides elsewhere in the Internet 10, the MT 14 transmits the message to that process over the network 3 and over the Internet 10.
- the user-programmed message e.g., "Wake up WLAN”
- the associated user-programmed actions activating the WLAN interface 14A
- an application can b e run in the MT 14 (e.g., one based on JAVA) to facilitate the Service Creation procedure.
- Web-based Service Creation sessions may also be employed.
- the application if run in the MT 14, may use the control unit 14C and the UI 14D to prompt the user to enter the required values for Location, Location Tracker, Message, etc. If the web-based interface is used, the web server can prompt the user for this information.
- the format and operation of the data entry application can assume many forms, as should occur to those skilled in the art when guided by the foregoing teachings.
- Intelligence may reside in control unit 14C or web server(s) to check the consistency of the information entered by user. For example, a user with an MT 14 that lacks a self-locate capability cannot enter the value "terminal" as the location tracker.
- this invention encompasses a method to provide a personalized, location related service to a user of the MT 14.
- the method includes: (A) generating a service specification object that comprises a user-specified location and a message to be generated when the user arrives at the location with the MT 14; and (B) storing the service specification object for later use.
- the method further entails: (C) tracking the location of the mobile terminal; and when the location of the mobile tenninal matches the location in the stored service creation object, (D) generating the message for activating a user-specified action.
- the user may specify the location of a train station, and the Notification function in this case downloads from a transportation provider WWW server to the MT 14 a current train schedule (possibly indicating any delayed trains) upon the MT 14 entering the indicated distance radius from the location of the train station.
- the schedule can be personalized.
- the user may specify the location of a shopping mall, and the Notification function in this case downloads from a shopping mall WWW server to the MT 14 a summary of sales being held by various merchants upon the MT 14 enteringthe indicated distance radius from the location of the shopping mall.
- the list of merchants can be personalized.
